Pieces

When I reach out you turn away, praying that our eyes won't lock
Why can't I seem to walk away?
It's because our hearts weren't meant to be apart
I know that you said you promise
I know that you said you care
But if this house wasn't meant to be broken
Why did I let you in?

Now I'm picking up all the pieces
Now I'm picking apart the frame
I've always wanted to witness
What was waiting for us to part again
It will always be mine to cherish
It will always be yours to claim
Though it may be all theirs to harbor
But it will always be ours, always be ours to hate

Now the symmetry has fallen to ruins
And all the pleasure has turned into pain
Whatever happened to sticking together?
Whatever happened to "heaven to gain"?

Bit by bit you slowly quit on life
Brick by brick you tore down what was mine
And watched it die

Slowly quit on life
Brick by brick you tore down what was mine
And watched it die

Now I'm picking up all the pieces
Now I'm picking apart the frame
I've always wanted to witness
What was waiting for us to part again
It will always be mine to cherish
It will always be yours to claim
As we stare into black reflections
Suffocating the urge to take blame
Now the symmetry's fallen to ruins
And the pleasure has all turned to pain
But it will always be ours to cherish
And it will always be ours, always be ours to hate

Now that I see you I turn away, praying that our eyes won't lock
I wish that we both could just walk away
But our souls aren't meant to be apart
And I know that I said that I promise
And I know that I said that I care
If this house wasn't meant to be broken
Then why would you let me in?

Now that I see you I turn away, praying that our eyes won't lock
I wish that we both could just walk away
But our souls aren't meant to be apart
And I know that I said that I promise
And I know that I said that I care
If this house wasn't meant to be broken
Then why did you let me in?
